AN EMOTIONAL GOODBYE FOR THE BUFFALO SABRES: KYLE OKPOSO TRADE TO THE FLORIDA PANTHERS
This is for all intents and purposes a very emotional goodbye because the Buffalo sabes have traded away forward Kyle Oso to the Florida Panthers in exchange for defenseman CI sealin and a 7th round pick in the 2024 NHL draft and included are the two Graphics pretty much talking about the same things here
But I wanted to talk about this dude right here what an absolute Legend Kyle ooso Buffalo saber Captain is gone 35 years old 6′ 218 right-handed rightwing Center $2.5 million a year to the end of this season he’s going over to the Florida Panthers after being the captain
Of Buffalo for a season last year and 61 games this year I think most of us are familiar with the body of work that kyok poo has had as a former top 10 pick in the NHL draft in ’06 eventually becoming an absolute AB solute stud with the New
York Islanders maxing out at 69 points in 20134 that’s a very nice amount of points he hit 60 twice with the Isles before going over to the Buffalo Sabers in 201617 where unfortunately he was never as good but he was still all right still a veteran leadership presence still a
Captain worthy player he got the A on his sweater quickly and his best season in Buffalo came immediately after getting 45 points in 65 games now he did have a 45o season just two years ago in 74 games played so even as far back as 33 years old kyoso was still providing
On Ice production value on top of his leadership and now the captain of the Sabers has gotten sent over to a Florida Panthers team that boasts the likes of many extra forwards that they have just gotten they got tereno they have one of the best top sixes in the NHL even
Before that trade and now with a depth Edition like AO there really is no telling how far the Florida gosh darn Panthers are going to be able to go this season kic poo and his 22 points on Buffalo would already be just outside the top 10 in point production with this
Group of guys add on Vladimir tereno who had himself a game played already actually good to see him playing so quickly but tereno was a pretty big addition KY poo is another one you’re just bringing in Le ERS and good veterans into this lineup that know how
To score know how to win aoso didn’t really have too much success I would say in the postseason the most he’s played is two rounds with the Islanders in 20156 but aside from that everything else that you could want out of a veteran player kyak poo has he’s been
Out of the playoffs for almost a decade this is a drought for the ages so Florida Panthers all yall got to do is put this guy in the postseason and let him cook last time he was in the playoffs he was under a point per game I
Don’t know how well he’s going to be able to do this time around but we will see indeed now going over to the Florida Panthers you have yourselves of course kic posa but then coming back the other way a conditional seventh round pick in 2024 and defensive prospect CI sealin
The seventh round pick can turn into a fifth if Florida wins the cup but that’s not guaranteed I’d say it’s a pretty high likelihood happening but it’s not guaranteed so we’ll just say a seventh for now meanwhile Kye shaan I’ve been seeing a lot of people on saber social
Media complaining about this guy not like the Sabers the team themselves but the Sabers fan base C Jalin is a 24-year-old 61 179 left-handed defenseman signed to the end of this season making $855,000 now actually before we continue with this conversation I will say that the JS
In Swedish have a yah sound to my understanding I’m not too sure what the two dots on top of the a means I think actually it’s not an a it’s like an ah sound right so it would be K zalen is that correct I’m not too sure my Swedish
Pronunciation is a little bit off I only know the double thing on top because of hoglander but either way Jalen is himself a pretty interesting Prospect initially a Rangers drafty back in 2017 fifth round pick 145th overall and he’s been a player that really hasn’t had much to show for at the developmental
Level in Pro Hockey in North America three points in 22 games played with the Charlotte Checkers this year he had eight points in 39 games played the year before that really he’s not a super offensive guy his best offensive season came in 2122 22 points in 46 games
Played for Lex Shan’s if in the shl and the scattering report here says that charin does not tend to play overly aggressive at either side of the ice but he is a steady Puck moving defenseman who does not make a lot of mistakes that was written back in 2017 and I’ve been
Seeing a lot of Sabers fans complaining because they got themselves yet another left-handed defenseman in their system don’t even mind if xalan plays in the NHL or not but just talking about the amount of guys they have on this depth chart that happen to be left D it is
Pretty interesting to note of course you had power and darene as the ones and ones from earlier this season bow and Byrum was had it on just the other night he had two points in his first game so good to see him doing that on the new
Team side note it’s kind of funny how when Bowen Byrum was on the power play for the Sabers last night you can tell that he wasn’t really used to the Sabers structure he’s not used to his power play teammates not moving like they do in Colorado he was kind of confused for
A bit he still got a goal and an assist though which is good to see but Bowen Byrum is indeed a left-handed defenseman that was added onto this team you’ve got Riley St Ryan Johnson is left I’m pretty sure as well yeah he is so there you go buffalo getting themselves yet another
Left-handed defenseman to add into the system let’s go out there to cap friendly and see what the Buffalo Sabers roster looks like on here because it was a pretty big point of contention I’d say amongst many of these Sabers fans okay it just says ldrd so daring Byam Bryson
Johnson power all play on the left and then you go down into the miners and you see Riley Stillman novikov um C xalan is over here and then kale CLE Jeremy Davies a lot of left-handed defenseman so I’m not necessarily too sure what the Buffalo Sabers plan is with this kind of
A move why they got Xin in particular to come back in this kyak poso trade but at the end of the day the reason this trade was made was not because kie shalot is like this big amazing player it’s because they wanted to give kyopo the playoff off opportunity towards the end
Of his career to hopefully win a Stanley Cup and do right by the player it was even talked about here I mean all of the Insiders are saying pretty much the same thing nice gesture by Kevin Adams and the Sabers Florida is where ooso wanted to go wanted to go indeed same thing
Could be said about tereno that’s why the Senators could not get any significant return for him but either way for the Florida Panthers good piece of business they got tereno they got ooso apparently they’re just going out there and getting everybody whose last name ends in an O so who’s next uh I
Don’t really know off the top of my head not too many guys are coming to mind uh kzo yeah get him um yeah that’s the only one that I can think of but either way let me know your thoughts in the comment section below about the emotional departure of kyoso from the Buffalo
Sabers he is no longer here the captain is gone the Florida Panthers gained themselves a new leader a new veteran presence and in return it is a seventh that could turn into a fifth as well as a Pros ECT that many many many sabes fans are questioning the acquisition of
If call Jalin can come in here and just prove his worth be fantastic at the Rochester Americans level get called up to the NHL play well do his thing then okay I think a lot of people would shut up about that um at that time but it’s
Not guaranteed so we’ll see what happens with CI shaan as his career continues in the Buffalo saber system but for now let me know your thoughts in the comment section below about this trade C Jalin for k poso I hope you enjoyed this v9 and bye
